Ed. Note: I'm happy to share this guest post from writer Tamara Williamson about a slice of Memphis history, the building at 409 South Main. 

Broad Avenue Arts District in the Binghampton neighborhood is another area that has gone from almost empty to exciting (even bustling on some nights) in the last few years. If you haven't been to Broad Avenue in a while, here's a guide to what's going on. 

Today's news includes a Grizzlies roster update, a shameless plug for your vote for I Love Memphis in this year's Best of Memphis ballot, a few save-the-dates, a chance to get Google Fiber to Memphis, and more. First, here's a photo from @cheriecheezcake from Instagram. Take your photos #ilovememphis and they might show up on the blog!

Happy Friday, Memphis! There's a lot of awesome stuff to do this weekend. But first, some housekeeping.

If you haven't yet listened the July podcast, make sure to click right here and listen to me and Kevin talk to Bruce VanWyngarden, editor of the Memphis Flyer.

Memphis rapper/hip-hip artist/emcee Knowledge Nick is on a roll. He's released four projects in three years, including his most recent album, "The New Memphis". Don't stereotype him for his genre or his age, though, because you won't hear "krunk" or "turnt up" on any of his albums. Not that he's against it - "everything has its lane" is something he likes to say - but a more message-based music is his personal style.

Yes, it's still summer, and there are still a few summer shows left, but the Levitt Shell has just announced its fall concert lineup, which kicks off on September 6. All shows are free (but donations accepted!) and start at 7 p.m. unless otherwise noted. For more information, visit levittshell.org.

The other day I met a friend for drinks, and at some point realized I was wearing old jeans and a black tank top I bought in the kids' section on sale about eight years ago. This, plus my constant struggle to figure out what to wear, led me to realize I should probably update my wardrobe a little.
